It can be used for parsing server responses:

<?php
// server side
if (isset($_REQUEST["action"]) && $_REQUEST["action"] == "aboutMe") {
    print_r('{name: "James", age: 26, role: "Site Admin"}');
}
?>

// client side
window.dhx.ajax.get("server.php?action=aboutMe", function(r){
    var t = window.dhx.s2j(r.xmlDoc.responseText);
    if (t != null) {
        for (var a in t) console.log(a+": "+t[a]);
    } else {
        dhtmlx.message({type: "error", text: "...."});
    }
});

the result will be:
name: James
age: 26
role: Site Admin
